Another 6 hours!

... I'm getting a dab hand at moving furniture.... today I wanted to see what was under the carpets.....(we decided laminate flooring may not work... so am going to investigate cushionfloor to cover the lumps and bumps !]  ...so having cleared the cosy corner and taken that piece  up..... I moved things back in there leaving a clear space !!

Im hoping soneone on Ebay wants to start an indian restaurant !!

 

  

The corner of the fireplace was considerably drier when I left.. though the dehumidifier is still getting pretty full....

 

... and the builder and landlord put some dye down one drain to see if that's a culprit..... and planned some patching up in vulnerable places where water may be getting in.

we also stripped some plasterboard from the pillar .... [fun wielding a hammer at it!]..... and I am going to get a surveyor to take a look and see if the orignal timber is a strong enough support and we can strip away the extra timber.. would make it a lot less obtrusive..... and make it easier to see round during talks !!!


 

  


Two more chairs leaving tomorrow..........need to get to work soon sorting the kitchen equipment and get  shelves up.....

May is not that  far away !!!!
